Cryptids and Friends zine
I worked up a zine for gift giving over the holidays and have just reprinted a few copies of it. I am thinking of offering them in my store, but I am also thinking I want to bundle it with a companion zine I am working on. For now, I give you it electronically!

Artsy doings in 2017
So, it looks like in 2017 I finished a few big projects, which is good, but neglected to share much regular doodlin, which is bad. Here’s the gist of my 2017:
Richard Dadd – The Fairy Feller’s Master Stroke
Richard Dadd was in a psychiatric institution when he painted the Fairy Fellers Master Stroke over the course of nine years. The painting is remarkable for the layering technique that lends the figures a type of bas relief. In 1865, after stopping work on, what he considered, the unfinished painting, he wrote a poem that accompanies it called “Elimination of a Picture & its Subject – called The Fellers’ Master Stroke.”
The poem, and the painting really, give me the impression that there is a secret communicated within that is yet to be uncovered. Perhaps it does this to a lot of people, since it does hold a secret in The Witches of Chiswick by Robert Rankin – one of many pieces of literature that refer to it.
